Thanks for your replies.
@Jonny69 - Yeah I agree with you to an extent. I'm not looking for that perfect shot every time. Reading the forums, I'm not going to switch the machine on, wait an hour for it to heat up and reach equilibrium...etc etc...
Having that baseline of a decent tasting espresso is where I'm trying to get to.
Forgot to add, basket.
@useless - Yep, from what I've read, under extracted. Can't go any finer on my grind, don't have a picture to hand sorry.
No to the coffee shop question but I guess that's an option, at least then the grind size is fixed and I can work on the other variables in order to get something that tastes OK.
